Abstract
Herniation of the intraabdominal organs through a diaphragmatic defect that occurs due to the joining anomaly of the sternal and costal segments of diaphragm is known as Morgagni Hernia. Although most of the patients with Morgagni Hernia are asymptomatic, intestinal obstruction, incarceration and strangulation can rarely occur. An 83 years old female patient admitted with acute abdomen to our clinic. Morgagni hernia was detected with preoperative thoracic and abdominal computed tomography. We aimed to present our management in Morgagni Hernia in this study.
